In June 2023 a group of us at The Message are embarking of a fundraising challenge to raise much needed money for our work. In the last 2 years we have launched 20 Community Groceries across the UK helping those most in need in these challenging times. We’re doing all this on top of our normal work in schools, prisons and local communities. Dates : 9th-11th June 2023 Rochdale Harriers Three Day Event Day 1, Friday 7:30pm - THE NORDEN 6 MILE ROAD RACE A breathtaking (in every sense) 6-mile course with 700ft ascent. Stunning views on the climb up Edenfield road and during the descent down Ashworth Valley Road Day 2, Saturday, 11:00am - THE NADEN VALLEY MULTI TERRAIN RACE An undulating, 6-mile, three-lap race on trail and road. The route passes through Naden Valley, along School Lane, across the stream and past the Three Owls Bird Sanctuary Day 3, Sunday 11:00am - THE KNOWL HILL FELL RACE Fell Race (1300′ total climbs) passing alongside Higher Naden Reservoir, a scramble up to the top of Knowl Hill (1380′), run down between the 4 reservoirs, back up the steps then down past Dr Dam Lake to the finish Please give generously if you are able. Thanks in advance!
